    I have added category fields onto my GD Search, it will not show up after I took it off and tried to re-add it. I have done everything correctly to my knowledge and have managed to make it work once already on the events section of the search and the places section. How can I get this feature to work again?

    Thanks

    Hi Claire McKeown,

    Thanks for your message. Could you please share the URL of the page in question and also the steps to replicate it? Also, share your Website WP admin access here in private reply and we’ll check your GD setup.

    Hello,

    adding the category field as a select in the search bar isn’t global. You need to set it up for each Custom Post Type. Head to the events search tab and set it up there as well, just like you did for places.

    Have you added some events already?

    If we need to check the settings please share credentials in a private reply AND a link to the WP Backend edit page for the template so we know where to look.

    You managed to add events without adding a category to them.

    The category drop-down is ‘smart’ and only shows categories that are applied to the listings.

    Try adding categories and it should show up
